Invest In Peace

I am a Jewish American woman and I believe that selective divestment against companies that benefit from the occupation is a powerful, nonviolent way that we as Americans can push for an end to the Israeli occupation of Palestinian lands. Companies that benefit from the occupation and human rights violations have an interest in its continuance. Through selective divestment, it is possible to cause these companies to reconsider their own best interests. I am pro-Israel, pro-peace, and pro-humanity. Israel will never have peace until it ends its occupation and human rights violations, and any steps we can take to bring about this result, will be steps to peace for both Israelis and Palestinians.

Thank you,
